In a recent airing of "Unsolved Mysteries", there was a young boy who was the victim of the holocaust(大屠杀).He'd been in a work camp for several years and somehow had managed to survive the of his imprisonment.
The story was of a boy - now in his sixties - and his quest to find an American soldier who had a kindness to him by some food. It might seem ,but to this child, who had seen nothing but and inhumanity for as long as he could remember, it was a that marked a turning point in his life, for he had lost hope .When he was liberated by the American forces, he was dying. He, needed food. As he was staggering along the road a young soldier down from his tank and gave him some of his supplies. With this one act of generosity, a kind American had aroused the again that there really was some good in the world. And the boy never it. The boy later went to America, raised a family, became successful and worked hard to repay the he had received with his own.
Actually there were so many similar acts of generosity that it would be almost impossible to know for sure who the soldier was.
We all have a choice: to create more light in the world. As Confucius it over 2500 years ago, "It is better to light one small candle than to the darkness."
As the story above so nicely small gestures can often generate huge blessings. If we're constantly looking for and doing kind acts, we will no doubt bring more joy into the world around us as well as into our own world!

Three boys and three girls boarded the bus to Fort Lauderdale, dreaming of golden beaches as the gray cold of New York disappeared behind them. They noticed an old man, who sat in front of them, dressed in a plain, ill-fitting suit, never , and his dusty face his age.
He was in his seat like a stone, and the young people began to about him, trying to his life and his age. Deep into the night, outside Washington, one of the girls went up to him and introduced herself. “Want some wine?” He took the glass and drank.
